Major patch released for critical windows vulnerability

Microsoft has issued a warning in advance that it is to release a “critical” windows patch. It is expected that there is a serious vulnerability involved as there is a lack of information about the patch for Windows 2000, XP and server 2003.

The update has been released by Microsoft and it is highly advisable that organisations and individuals update their system. It is over a year since Microsoft last released an emergency patch ahead of its scheduled security updates on the second Tuesday of every month.

There have been reports by analysts saying that Microsoft must consider the issue to be serious for the company to rush out with this type of update. Ensure you update your computer now!
